Many Many Many Thanks

I'm trying to play along with the challenges with a theme of fall to catch up with my Thanksgiving cards. I saw the challenge at Bitten by the Bug couple days ago and meant to combine it with Catch The Bug Challenge. Combining two "bug" challenges!

Bitten by the Bug asked that we make a project including a pumpkin, but not Halloween pumpkin. It also asks that we make use of our Cricut. Em......I doubt that my cartridges cut pumpkins directly. How about sticking three ovals together?

I have made a pumpkin with three ovals that were cut with Cricut Art Philosophy Collection. The cartridge provides 3 kinds of ovals and I've picked the one that is least elongated. The pumpkin was put as the focal point of a card where the card sketch was presented by Catch The Bug:

My card looks like this:

The background was the Flirty paper, and the scalloped edge is actually the zip strip of the same paper. I simply cut the scalloped edge according to its pattern! I wrapped around the New England Ivy cardstock with bakers twine, stuck the focal point onto the card with some 3-D foam tape and the card was finished!
